Fasting & Praying Guide

DAY 15 OF 21

The psalmist tells us in Psalm 8:5 that God made humans a little lower than angels “and crowned them with glory and honor.” But the psalmist isn’t saying humans have their own glory apart from God. Rather, the glory of humanity is the glory of God reflected in humans as His image in the world. Humans are like the moon, whose light reflects the light of the sun. Our glory is the glory of God. So, the more we worship and serve God, as Jesus says, the more we reflect God’s glory.

Fasting & Praying Guide

This 21-day fasting and prayer guide will look first at the example of Jesus’ fasting and temptation in the wilderness. Then we will draw out important biblical teachings to edify our souls as we fast from food and feast on God. The goal is to experience what it means to live not by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matt. 4:4).
